  • Business Acumen and Commercial Impact

  • Demonstrated experience owning and influencing product-related P&L, revenue growth, and monetization strategies; deep understanding of customer lifetime value and pricing models.
  • Strategic thinker adept at aligning product strategy with financial objectives, optimizing product portfolios for maximum revenue impact and customer value.

  • Collaborate closely with internal teams to ensure product-market fit and organizational alignment.
  • Operational Judgment & Hands-On Leadership

  • Demonstrate sound judgment in build, buy, partner decisions, using frameworks that weigh core competency, time-to-market, and total cost of ownership.

  • Roll up your sleeves to build product muscle and organizational capability over time.
  • Qualifications

  • 15+ years of product experience
  • Master Degree is required. MBA preferred.
  • Skilled at influencing across the organization, managing expectations transparently, and guiding teams through periods of product evolution.
